Musik Sawah "Komposisi Alam Yang Hilang" Dalam Perspektif Kajian Budaya

This paper describes critically about some of the phenomena of the lost natural ecosystem. Nature contributes a great deal to the experience of science and art. Rice fields as part of this nature not only provide the fulfillment of food needs, but also give something that can fill the other side of human life which is known as knowledge of beauty. The beauty of rice paddies fills the sidelines of human activities in cultivating the land, now lost eroded interests and needs of globalization and modernization. Music that used to be heard when farmers cultivate their fields has been lost, harmonization in the composition of nature was replaced by the view of high rise buildings, luxury homes and densely populated homes. The breakup of this chain resulted in some of the natural composition perished. It has been replaced by individualist behavior that ignores social relations and the balance of nature and man. Looking deeper, the rice field music even gives a sign of the presence of social control and builds human relationships between humans and humans with nature and even human relations to the creator. For this writing is presents as a form of critical analysis of the phenomenon of rice music as a lost natural composition through the theory of aesthetic music and ecofeminism as analiytical scalpel.
